CERTIFICATION FORM

I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS SECURITY IS NOT A DEPOSIT OR SAVINGS ACCOUNT AND IS NOT FEDERALLY INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION, AND IS NOT INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY BENEFICIAL SAVINGS BANK MHC, BENEFICIAL MUTUAL BANCORP, INC., BENEFICIAL BANCORP, INC., BENEFICIAL BANK, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OR BY ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY. THE ENTIRE AMOUNT OF AN INVESTOR’S PRINCIPAL IS SUBJECT TO LOSS.

I further certify that, before purchasing the common stock of Beneficial Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), I received a prospectus of the Company dated _____, 2014 relating to such offer of common stock. The prospectus that I received contains disclosure concerning the nature of the common stock being offered by the Company and describes in the “Risk Factors” section, the risks involved in the investment in this common stock, including but not limited to the following:

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

1.      Continued low loan demand may negatively impact our earnings and results of operations.

2.      Our business is subject to interest rate risk and variations in interest rates may negatively affect our financial performance.

3.      Our emphasis on commercial loans may expose us to increased lending risks.

4.      Strong competition within our market area could hurt our profits and slow growth.

5.      Our emphasis on residential mortgage loans and home equity loans exposes us to lending risks, and the geographic concentration of our loan portfolio and lending activities makes us vulnerable to a downturn in the local economy.

6.      A return to recessionary conditions could result in increases in our level of non-performing loans and/or reduce demand for our products and services, which would lead to lower revenue, higher loan losses and lower earnings.

7.      If our allowance for loan losses is not sufficient to cover actual loan losses, our results of operations will be negatively impacted.

8.      A significant percentage of our assets is invested in securities which typically have a lower yield than our loan portfolio.

9.      We are subject to certain risks in connection with our strategy of growing through mergers and acquisitions.

10.    We hold goodwill, an intangible asset that could be classified as impaired in the future. If goodwill is considered to be either partially or fully impaired in the future, our earnings and the book value of goodwill would decrease.

11.    The preparation of our tax returns requires the use of estimates and interpretations of complex tax laws and regulations and is subject to review by taxing authorities.

12.    We operate in a highly regulated environment and we may be adversely affected by changes in laws and regulations.

13.    Legislative financial reforms and future regulatory reforms required by such legislation could have a significant impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

14.    We will become subject to more stringent capital requirements, which may adversely impact our return on equity, or constrain us from paying dividends or repurchasing shares.

15.    Our framework for managing risks may not be effective in mitigating risk and loss.

16.    Loss of, or failure to adequately safeguard, confidential or proprietary information may adversely affect our operations, net income or reputation.

17.    The failure of other companies to adequately provide key components of our business infrastructure could adversely affect our operations and revenues.

 

Risks Related to the Offering

 

18.    We have broad discretion in allocating the proceeds of the offering. Our failure to effectively utilize such proceeds would reduce our profitability.

19.    Our share price may fluctuate, which may make it difficult for you to sell your common stock when you want or at prices you find attractive.

20.    Our return on equity will be low following the stock offering. This could negatively affect the trading price of our shares of common stock.

21.    Issuance of shares for benefit programs may dilute your ownership interest.

22.    Additional compensation expenses following the offering from equity benefit plans will adversely affect our profitability.

23.    The contribution to the charitable foundation will adversely impact net income.

24.    The articles of incorporation and bylaws of Beneficial Bancorp and certain laws and regulations may prevent or make more difficult certain transactions, including a sale or merger of Beneficial Bancorp.

(By Signing the Front of this Form the Investor is Not Waiving Any Rights Under the Federal Securities Laws,

Including the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934)

Standard U.S. Postal Service state abbreviations should be used to describe the appropriate state. For example, stock held by John Doe as custodian for Susan Doe under the PA Uniform Transfers to Minors Act will be abbreviated John Doe, CUST Susan Doe UTMA PA (use minor’s social security number).
